    Cool! I'm not sure where my Gramma got the method; IIRC, it was
    something she started making when I was a tween. I love them and
    since Steve brought up the idea, I think I'll make some for DS &
    I if DH doesn't want 'em...

    It is nice that you learned the recipe and the technique from Gramma. My
    Aunt Reba cooked the best grease-tastic onion rings I ever had,
    unfortunately she passed away and the recipe went with her.

    Aside from lasting friendships, the beauty of this group, is that we can
    share our recipes with each other, and they can continue forever.

    The very best onion rings that I know are those served in
    Japanese restaurants as tempura items!

    That's the way I do them, but my results are not as consistent as the
    OP is looking for, I fear. I slice the onions (white, yellow, or
    sweet) and keep them in ice water for at least 30 minutes. Then I
    drain them, dredge in flour, shake 'em off, and dip well in tempura
    batter (usually from a box), thence into the hot oil, just a few at a
    time. Extremely tasty, but often not evenly batter-coated. -aem

    i don't think an even coating is in the nature of tempura.
